Why would a fat old cyber junkie long term unemployed multi troll like Groggy laugh at a successful young journalist going places?

Anyone know?

Jeez you're so dramatic...

I still don't know who I'm going to vote for.  The full platforms of the majors isn't out yet, and when it comes to the Senate, I don't know how to preference all the minors below the line for the same reason.

I like to talk about these policies platforms with those who clearly are on a different part of the political spectrum than I am because it's the best way to get other points of view in these algorithm-fed times.

I'm not trying to convince you of anything, I'm just a straight shooter and will question things that don't make sense to me, like how you could "know" something you've just admitted is impossible to know about Labor funding when you don't seem to care about how the incumbents will fund anything.

It puts what you say and your point of view into perspective, that is, you've already decided who you're voting for either purely based on political ideology, or at best which leader of the parties annoys you the least.

So when it comes to weighting the take on things you put forward, I can at least properly weight that.

I won't lie, I'm very unlikely to vote for the Liberal candidate in my electorate or preference them first in the Senate, but I still don't know who I'm going to vote "for", if anyone.

It may be, as has been the case for the last few elections, voting in reverse, to keep the crazy people out and the least objectionable option in the 1st pick.

I look forward to more policy detail from both majors coming out.

But it will be interesting to see how much politicing you attack Labor for, and how much you'll inevitably forgive from the Libs.

Scomo can't even meet with people without it being drastically stage-managed and controlled because the people are sick of his excuses and inaction.

Albo walked around with Carl from 60 minutes just the two of them, willing to talk to whoever wanted to.

One is afraid of the people and the other isn't.

That's more telling than you'll ever admit.

You may be in for a rude shock once the votes are counted.

But please, please, don't be one of those tards who'll claim election fraud because your guy didn't win, if it plays out like that.

1. I don't forgive people easily these days.

2. As regards Aged Care though .... I'm more than happy to debate you on how utterly despicable and unworkable Albo's Election uncosted and vague reply was. If indeed you agree with me then there's nothing to debate.

Also - those aged care places are not cheap.
People have to sell their houses to get a place
and then they get ripped off.
The owners of aged care homes must be getting very rich from the suffering of their customers.

While ever the 'privatised' profit model style operates, corners will always be cut and those inhabitants of the gulag/konzentrationslager will always receive bare subistence.

Back in the 1970's I was courting a girl whose mother owned a nursing home - the lass was a nurse - and that nursing home was later 'outed' as a total disaster financially and care wise.

My ex, the one I'm carer for now, may end up in one soon - I have already laid down the law to her kids that they WILL visit every weekend and keep a close eye on things... if they don't I will haunt them and take their inheritance. 

Raise the question any time you want:-  How can one human being do such things to another?  Look around you.......... in war it is only the very easiest thing to do at times.... but the basic predisposition is already there in human nature, someone said about the Korean War when it came to US soldiers shooting at farmers - there is nothing so brutal as the American boy - git some... git some........ **coughs** I guess your best examples would be in primitive societies in the way they treat one another.................... (bait laid) ...........
